Question on Mushroom Gel Cap's
    #7006097 - 06/04/07 12:44 AM (16 years, 9 months ago)

Hi,
I have been using a food dehydrator to dry the mushrooms and then
grind them up and do a variation of Journeyman's Capsule Technique.

I put the Gel caps into old large pill bottles and put a pack of
desiccant to absorb any moisture and then put them in a Sub Zero
Freezer and open when I want to get some Cap's.

I also put powder in plastic bag's going by the same way above and put
in freezer till I have enough powder or feel like making the Gel
Cap's.

It seems like I'm loosing potency, I'm new to this and mushrooms but
the strength of any affects seem to change so I'm thinking I'm doing
something wrong.

Does anyone have any suggestions in what if any
I'm doing that could be wrong?

Thanks for any help,
BlackStar

Your dehydrator could be too high, but I doubt that's it.

Are you tripping every other day or something? Most people find that more than once a month leads to less intense experiences.

Hi,
Mostly B+ and some Penis Envy in mycbags, I have not used P.E.yet.
The food dehydrator is a Nesco A.M. with Temp control and is set at
95-115 and takes a few day's..

Maybe taking it to much could be it, I was trying also to take low doses
to see if it would help Chronic Pain so it could be a build up.
The heavy med's I take could affect it to from what I have read.
As most things go it seems like everything with mushrooms is 50/50
as far as I have seen with regards to growing..

I have only been doing this for 3 months and my first bag has done
8 flushes and is about done. I have PFC that is not doing anything but
tiny pin's but never grow and I have a bag of Panaeolus cyanescens
that just will not pin. All the Bag's are Special Grain based.

Some of this I should post in the growing area but wanted to give you a idea on how I'm doing it..

Thanks,
BlackStar

Dont grind your shrooms until your ready to cap them, and no need to store them in the freezer - the fridge is fine, even just a cool, dark place at the back of the cupboard will be ok. Make sure also your container is black so it doesnt let any light through, and make sure you dose on an empty stomach - and not too often either.

A big thing I think may also be your meds, depending on what your taking.

Hi,
That's new to me, I always heard you had to freeze them to last longer
and Grind them for Cap's or Tea which I have not tried yet.

Yes, I got sick the first time as I had not waited long enough.
After that I would do them when I woke up or 6-8 hrs after eating.

So Shrooms build up in your system faster than say LSD?

My pain meds could be it as they are about as strong as you can get.
Morphine, Roxicodone, Soma,Valium and some Addaral to keep me awake..
All the things a kid could wish for, back in the 80s.. Not so fun to
be tied down to them now though and it never gets rid of all your
Pain..I could go one and on about how much it sucks!

If most people just do this 1 time a month it sounds like you should
do a good size dose to get the most out of it..

I don't know if it will help with my Pain as the times I have taken
them, I was not much good for anything else. It did block my Pain but
after it was over the pain came back stronger as I had not taken any
of my Meds earlier in the day.
Pain just Sucks..

It has been fun to Grow even just for a hobby now and then..

Thanks,
BlackStar

You say your drier heats them to 95-115 for a few days…  I think the heat may be a problem.  I haven’t performed any “scientific” tests in this regard, but I understand psilocybin breaks down in heat.  Exactly what “heat” means, I don’t know, but I would think that 95-115 would qualify.

I would suggest another technique besides the food dehydrator. 

Using a Rubermaid box and an old computer fan you can create an apparatus that will circulate air across the mushrooms.  Twenty-four hours of this will get them pretty dry.  Next, use a vacuum desiccator for a couple days.  Then, store the dried mushrooms in a freezer until you have a satisfactory quantity.  Finally, put the mushrooms in a coffee grinder and then use a mortar and pestle to grind them into dust.
